The government is closely monitoring the spread of the Coronavirus and is taking action at home and abroad. The current advice is that you should not be unduly worried about the possibility of your children catching the Coronavirus.
There is no reason why your children should not continue to attend their early years, school or further education setting as normal.
Advice for parents/guardians
This is an emerging infection and scientific understanding of the disease is evolving rapidly and as such advice from Public Health England (PHE) is constantly being updated and followed by the School.
If you have any queries, you should seek advice from PHE (Public Health England). The contact details for PHE West Midlands is 0344 2253560 (option 2).
